**Please, do NOT do this!** Nim is already a big language. Special treatment of 
such a dubious corner-case would be bad. Global variables, unless they are 
compile-time constants, come with their own set of problems and better be 
avoided in well designed code. Besides, as you already mentioned `--gc:arc` or 
'\--gc:orc' (soon to be default) alleviates the problem.
